Prepping for Summer

The boys and I planted our Marigold and Zinnia seeds for the garden.  Much to Peter's dismay the seeds have been in the dirt for 90 minutes now and they still haven't grown.

Then the boys tried out their new bedrolls for camping.  We have a camping trip planned for early in the summer and it will be a whole new adventure for us -  a toddler and a preschooler and a heavily pregnant mom.  

Peter is holding a rag to his mouth/nose because he has a cold and REALLY doesn't like his nose running.  Any nose leakage leads to frantic screaming, sobbing and panic.  Unfortunately, after holding a rag there on and off for a few days he has taken to chewing the rags (for comfort?).  This is gross because he is chewing snotty rags and it is annoying because it further exacerbates his articulation issues and makes him impossible to understand.  I'm firmly trying to break this habit.
